Immediate Justice and reparative services

Description

Following a pilot for Immediate Justice in ten trailblazer areas across England and Wales the UK Government have decided to roll it out across all other force areas of England and Wales. Immediate Justice will ensure that perpetrators of anti-social behaviour and relevant crimes are held accountable for their behaviour, whilst providing victims and communities with a voice in how they would like offenders to make amends Utilising existing Criminal Justice frameworks, Immediate Justice is applicable as an Out of Court Resolution (OoCR) i.e. Community Resolution or Conditional Caution, identified through the Community Remedy document. Offenders will be required to undertake unpaid community work with an ambition for them to start that work as soon as 48 hours after referral to the Immediate Justice Reparation Service provider, so victims know anti-social behaviour is treated seriously and with urgency.

Any extensions would be with the expectation that the Successful Tenderer is able to provide services within the budgets set, the OSPCC will be unable to support any additional costs that exceed the funding received from HM Government.
